Newell Rubbermaid Inc. wanted to better allocate inventory and determine what goods were available to customers by improving its use of the available-to-promise (ATP) functionality of the SAP ERP application. It turned to the Business Transformation Consulting group, part of the SAP Consulting organization, for a lightning-fast six-week engagement. The project included “quick wins” to sustain momentum and a road map to point the way to even greater supply chain efficiencies. This will be enabled by the global ATP functionality in the SAP Supply Chain Management (SAP SCM) application, which is crucial to Newell Rubbermaid’s long-term strategy of inventory prioritization.
